WEA-PAC

What is WEA-PAC?

“PAC” stands for “Political Action Committee.” WEA-PAC membership costs only $2.25 per month. The money is used to support pro-education political candidates, regardless of their political affiliation

In the past, teachers asked the state and the legislature to improve education funding and to increase compensation for public school employees. For the most part, they got nothing.

A few years ago, teachers got smarter and came to the realization that if significant change was to occur, they would have to make it happen.

The WEA Political Action Committee’s main focus is to support pro-education legislators. IEA encourages all members to join WEA-PAC. Forms are available from building reps, the IEA office or may be downloaded here. Simply send or deliver the form to the IEA office (not through district mail) to become a WEA-PAC member.

Why Should I Join?

There is a lot at stake.

Electing pro-education candidates helps us have pro-education policy makers, that support things like fully funding education, smaller class sizes, professional and competitive wages, collective bargaining rights, affordable health care, common sense testing.
